With complete integration of technology, huge savings in cabling and space in and on the control console can be realized. Today, a lot of functionality, previously only available in the engine room, is now added to the wheelhouse. With the latest data transfer and computer LAN network technologies, a single Cat 5 cable can transfer all data within the MPA system, from the wheelhouse to the main cabinet and to other places. Further slave displays can be connected into the MPA system, bringing all functionality and information, wherever and whenever needed, within reach.
